Houston Texans vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers NFL Picks

The Texans come into this game as a three point favorite against a Tampa Bay team that has been hard to figure. The problem here is that Tampa Bay has been very good at home, while the Texans have struggled a little bit on the road. That should point to Tampa being a good play in this game, but things aren’t always that easy.

Buffalo vs Dallas NFL Football Picks 

We have a game here with two of the strangest teams in the entire NFL. On one hand, there is Buffalo. The Bills weren’t expected to do much of anything, but they’ve been surprisingly competent. After a nice stretch of games, the Bills came back down to earth last week against the Jets at home. So can they bounce back and make the long trip out to Dallas and come home with a win? They come into this game as 5.5 point underdogs, with the public largely backing them. This is not a very good sign if you want to make your NFL picks on the Bills this week.  Continue Reading…

Cincinnati vs Tennessee NFL Point Spread Picks

Who would have guessed that the Cincinnati Bengals and Tennessee Titans would have winning records at this point in the season? Both teams have looked good, with the Bengals doing it with defense.

The Titans are at home and they are a field goal favorite, so there is that to consider. This number also seems a little bit low compared to what it should be, so maybe there is reason to be suspicious of the number.  Continue Reading…

New York Giants vs New England Patriots NFL Picks 

The Giants and Patriots play this week in a game that might be called the “marquee” of the weekend. Both teams come in at 5-2, but the Giants have had a stranger year than the Pats.

They are last in the league in passing defense, so you could envision Eli Manning having some success here if you are making NFL picks this weekend. The Patriots are at home, though, and they have been very difficult to beat at home over the last few years.  Continue Reading…

Minnesota Vikings vs  Carolina Panters NFL Point Spread Picks

In what amounts to a week of unremarkable matchups, this one should be fun for at least one reason. The Vikings head to Charlotte to take on a Panthers team that has been up and down this season. This is the way of life in the NFL when you have a rookie quarterback and both teams will be a part of that on Sunday. The Vikes went with Christian Ponder last week and he played well against a tough Packers defense. He showed a strong arm, good mobility, and decent smarts in trying to keep the Vikings in the game.

NFL Picks – Jacksonville Jaguars vs Houston Texans 

The Jacksonville Jaguars have been miserable for most of this season, but they managed to come up with a big win last week.
